We had a lovely stay at this house.
We were a party of 8 (7 adults and a toddler) and we really enjoyed our stay. The house was beautiful with lots of common spaces to spend some time together, but also the apartments are scattered along the property giving you some private space too.
Everything was clean and tidy, the garden was well kept with lovely flowers all around. The whole house is well equipped, so you have everything you need for the stay.
Even though the house is a bit out of the way (that's the whole point, right?!) it has easy access to other neighbouring villages, with a big supermarket about 10 minutes driving.
We haven't met Monika personally but Donatella, the owner, and her daughter were absolutely lovely and helpful throughout our stay. There were a couple of hiccups on the first day, but they made sure that everything was sorted right away.
We would definitely stay at their house again!

Was a fabulous place for our group of 8. Would recommend it and stay there again if we find ourselves in the area. We didn't meet Monika but Donatella was a lovely hostess despite our language barriers.
All emails and texts were responded to promptly. Thank you for a great stay my family will not forget!

This house was much nicer than we expected, based on the pictures posted on Airbnb. Absolutely lovely house, garden and location. We travelled with 4 children between 2-6. The pool and garden area was secure, green and clean, the property was safe and the all the children loved it (lots of lavendel and butterfly heaven). That makes it so much nicer for all the adults as well. The owners welcomed us and showed us around, arranged a 4-meal Italian dinner during our stay and left us with coffee and nice greetings when we left. This is absolutely worth every penny!!! Bring mosquito-spray if you spend the evenings outside.

We were 12 people staying at this beautiful villa! Everything was amazing! It is very secluded and that was very Nice! Monica was a perfect host! Helped us with absolutely everything and we are so grateful for everything she did for us! We are definitely coming back to this paradise! We give it 20/10 stars!

Casale Poggio Al Vento is a great Tuscan villa for groups of people to escape and relax. Our group really enjoyed the pool and the villa's surroundings. Moreover, the caretaker was a fantastic person that made sure we had everything we needed and helped us with our transportation from the villa to Siena. It's a little out of the way and hard to find but once you get there you really relax and appreciate the wonderful Tuscan countryside view it offers.

Ciao! I am Monika and I started to rent villas in Tuscany many years ago, in 1999. It all began when I fell in love with the Italian's, ( most of all my Italian husband.. :) ) and the natural beauties of this fantastic country , the history, the food and the ancient traditions of one of the most beautiful places of the world: Tuscany!
Today, my company is specialized in the rental of vacation holiday homes and villas not only in Tuscany and Umbria but also in other regions of Italy and gives direct assistance in Tuscany - Monte San Savino near Arezzo directly from the heart of Tuscany from May to September
I personally prepare tips and infos for my holiday guests regarding cultural events, shopping tips, wine tasting or info regarding typical local restaurants ...and much more!
I want you to feel " at home away from home" when living in one of my properties, to get in touch with the real Italian life meeting my Italian house owner friends and me. That is why I do my best to make your Dream Holiday in Italy come true!
I hope to welcome you soon...!
Sincerely
Monika Wunderlich
